Now you can find the same 4K video from few GBs to a hundred GBs, and I am wondering: where to stop? With music there is a similar phenomenon by which after a certain bitrate it becomes an esoteric art to detect improvements. So, what is your "very good enough" bitrate for 4K videos?

I tend to keep my library at 1080p for plex (remote users). Then have a seperate library for 4k films. I then download 4K films only as and when i'll watch them and purge them when I wont watch again (Can always re-download)
